Home should be a place of security, but a jammed lock or missing key can quickly compromise that feeling of safety. At WA Lock & Key, we specialize in comprehensive residential security.
As we operate as a fully mobile service, we come directly to your location. There is no need for you to travel to a shop or bring your hardware to us. Our technicians arrive in mobile units equipped with the latest tools to handle everything from traditional deadbolts to modern electronic entry systems right at your doorstep.
In University Place, the Puget Sound’s salt air and shifting South Sound temperatures can cause locks to oxidize or misalign as door frames swell. Our specialized residential service goes beyond a quick fix; we provide climate-ready maintenance including strike plate adjustments and deep lubrication to ensure your hardware stands up to Washington’s weather. Whether you need a rekey in Beckonridge, an emergency lockout at Chambers Bay, or coastal-grade hardware on Day Island, our 24-hour mobile team covers every corner of the city.
Getting locked out of your home is never convenient, especially during a rainy Washington evening. Our mobile technicians carry specialized tools to unlock your door efficiently without damaging your hardware or door frame. Whether you’re near Curtis High School or the West Side, we’ll come to you to get you back inside quickly.
If you’ve recently purchased a home in the University Place area, rekeying is your first line of defense. You never know who the previous owners gave spare keys to; contractors, neighbors, or former tenants. Our mobile team will visit your home and change the internal pins of your existing locks so only your new keys work, saving you the expense of replacing the entire handle set.

Not necessarily. Seattle’s damp climate can cause wooden doors to swell or metal components to oxidize, leading to sticky locks. Our technicians can often perform a professional lock tune-up, which includes deep cleaning and dry-film lubrication. If the alignment is off due to door warping, we can adjust the strike plate to ensure smooth operation without replacing the entire hardware.
We do. If you’ve just closed on a home in Morrison or Sunset, our call-out includes a full Home Security Audit. We check for weak links like short strike plate screws (which we replace with 3-inch hardened steel screws) and identify any outdated Grade 3 locks that could be easily defeated.
Yes. WA Lock & Key is fully licensed, bonded, and insured to operate in University Place.
Yes. University Place has many beautiful historic homes with antique furniture. We perform delicate lock picking and key fitting for vintage furniture, trunks, and interior skeleton key doors. We take great care to preserve the original hardware while restoring full functionality to your heirloom pieces.
Sliding doors are a common entry point for intruders. We install specialized sliding door loop locks and security bars that prevent the door from being lifted off its tracks or pried open. This is a vital upgrade for homes in Grandview or Sunset with large deck access.
